    Three books の Big Ginkgo

    Original Text

    First of all, there is a tall ginkgo tree on the road side. If you go inside, there is a tree spreading sideways. There is also in the back. It was still green. It seems that it is in full bloom from now on. You can enjoy it with your eyes because you can enter it for free.

    Shimaharaji Shrine の Yushenmu

    Original Text

    Shimabara Sumiyoshi Shrine was a small shrine that I didn't know in the past and nowadays. At the northern end of the precincts, there is a large ginkgo tree that is unbalanced in size. The estimated tree is 300 years old, the height is roughly 20 meters, and the trunk is 3.5 meters. The shrine was worried about being renovated, but this old tree also revived as a sacred tree. I think he stared at the tears of many prostitutes.

    It was a sacred tree of Sumiyoshi Jinja shrine.

    Original Text

    Shimabara, the place where the original yukaku was. I learned that Daimon and others remain as tourist spots, so I went there. At that time, there was a small old shrine right next to the west gate entrance, and next to it was this big ginkgo. The great ginkgo tree was the sacred tree of Sumiyoshi Jinja shrine, but it is quietly standing in the flow of history. There was a stone monument of the explanation that was built in 2001, and this tree was written about 300 years old, height 20㍍, and 3.5㍍ around the trunk.

    Original Text

    It's a big ginkgo tree near Shimabara Sumiyoshi Shrine, and that should be the case, and until the Meiji Restoration, this place was the precincts of Shimabara Sumiyoshi Shrine. You will be surprised at its size.
